The firm has the competence to manage large quantities of data and has hands-on experience in conducting large-scale energy procurements. Gabel Associates technical approach in energy procurement is to effectively manage the economic risk inherent in procurement of electricity and natural gas; leading to cost effective procurement in a timely manner. Gabel Associates has managed thousands of accounts and is able to move adroitly to capture market timing opportunities under a rigorous modeling of markets and pricing.

The firm assesses its clients' energy needs with rapid access to energy usage data through our Electronic Data Interchange agreements with electric distribution companies, which enables us to prepare Requests for Bids quickly and accurately. Given the volatility of today's energy markets and the need to respond to bids promptly, we immediately analyze offers and provide detailed evaluations to our clients so they can make informed purchasing decisions backed by our years of procurement experience. Our strategic procurement advice includes expert energy market evaluation and risk and cost analysis to help make sense of the complexities of purchasing energy.

Gabel Associates has pioneered a number of cost-saving procurement strategies, developing and administrating the ACES program, which aggregates energy procurement for over 400 school districts in New Jersey, reducing district expenses by purchasing energy in bulk. We developed an eBidding structure - the first electronic energy purchasing program approved by the State of New Jersey - to allow energy providers to efficiently bid for contracts online, further reducing procurement costs.

Gabel Associates was the first energy agent approved by the State of New Jersey, proof of our years of experience managing cost-effective and reliable energy procurement. As a registered energy agent, the firm has been conducting electric and natural gas supply procurements for clients for over 10 years, since the very beginning of retail choice in New Jersey.
